Well, at least this time they aren't hiding the fact its using liquid nitrogen.

Or they could just stop beating the dead horse that is Intel's current architecture and come up with a new design. We're up to "11th Gen" core iX chips. Pretty sure the branding luster is long gone...

Or they could just stop beating the dead horse that is Intel's current architecture and come up with a new design. We're up to "11th Gen" core iX chips. Pretty sure the branding luster is long gone...

But 11th gen is using a new architecture with an 18-20% IPC increase (on average) over Skylake. On top of that Intel now includes AVX-512 in the mainstream lineup. You also have several IO changes: (i)going from PCIe3 to PCIe4, (ii)direct CPU lanes increased from 16 to 20 and (iii)DMI3 will use a x8 link to the chipset instead of x4.

In most ways the above are equivalent (or better) to going from Zen2 to Zen3 in terms of per core performance increase and going from ZEN/ZEN+ to Zen 2 in terms of IO and features. And you get both within one generational leap.

And you get both within one generational leap.

Certainly a long overdue one.
